ABSTRACT

Disclosed are compounds of Formula (I), methods of using the compounds as immunomodulators, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds. The compounds are useful in treating, preventing or ameliorating diseases or disorders such as cancer or infections.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present application is concerned with pharmaceutically activecompounds. The disclosure provides compounds as well as theircompositions and methods of use. The compounds modulate PD-1/PD-L1protein/protein interaction and are useful in the treatment of variousdiseases including infectious diseases and cancer.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The immune system plays an important role in controlling and eradicatingdiseases such as cancer. However, cancer cells often develop strategiesto evade or to suppress the immune system in order to favor theirgrowth. One such mechanism is altering the expression of co-stimulatoryand co-inhibitory molecules expressed on immune cells (Postow et al, J.Clinical Oncology 2015, 1-9). Blocking the signaling of an inhibitoryimmune checkpoint, such as PD-1, has proven to be a promising andeffective treatment modality.

Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1), also known as CD279, is a cell surfacereceptor expressed on activated T cells, natural killer T cells, Bcells, and macrophages (Greenwald et al, Annu. Rev. Immunol 2005,23:515-548; Okazaki and Honjo, Trends Immunol 2006, (4):195-201). Itfunctions as an intrinsic negative feedback system to prevent theactivation of T-cells, which in turn reduces autoimmunity and promotesself-tolerance. In addition, PD-1 is also known to play a critical rolein the suppression of antigen-specific T cell response in diseases likecancer and viral infection (Sharpe et al, Nat Immunol 2007 8, 239-245;Postow et al, J. Clinical Oncol 2015, 1-9).

The structure of PD-1 consists of an extracellular immunoglobulinvariable-like domain followed by a transmembrane region and anintracellular domain (Parry et al, Mol Cell Biol 2005, 9543-9553). Theintracellular domain contains two phosphorylation sites located in animmunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif and an immunoreceptortyrosine-based switch motif, which suggests that PD-1 negativelyregulates T cell receptor-mediated signals. PD-1 has two ligands, PD-L1and PD-L2 (Parry et al, Mol Cell Biol 2005, 9543-9553; Latchman et al,Nat Immunol 2001, 2, 261-268), and they differ in their expressionpatterns. PD-L1 protein is upregulated on macrophages and dendriticcells in response to lipopolysaccharide and GM-CSF treatment, and on Tcells and B cells upon T cell receptor and B cell receptor signaling.PD-L1 is also highly expressed on almost all tumor cells, and theexpression is further increased after IFN-γ treatment (Iwai et al,PNAS2002, 99(19):12293-7; Blank et al, Cancer Res 2004, 64(3):1140-5).In fact, tumor PD-L1 expression status has been shown to be prognosticin multiple tumor types (Wang et al, Eur J Surg Oncol 2015; Huang et al,Oncol Rep 2015; Sabatier et al, Oncotarget 2015, 6(7): 5449-5464). PD-L2expression, in contrast, is more restricted and is expressed mainly bydendritic cells (Nakae et al, J Immunol 2006, 177:566-73). Ligation ofPD-1 with its ligands PD-L1 and PD-L2 on T cells delivers a signal thatinhibits IL-2 and IFN-γ production, as well as cell proliferationinduced upon T cell receptor activation (Carter et al, Eur J Immunol2002, 32(3):634-43; Freeman et al, J Exp Med 2000, 192(7):1027-34). Themechanism involves recruitment of SHP-2 or SHP-1 phosphatases to inhibitT cell receptor signaling such as Syk and Lck phosphorylation (Sharpe etal, Nat Immunol 2007, 8, 239-245). Activation of the PD-1 signaling axisalso attenuates PKC-θ activation loop phosphorylation, which isnecessary for the activation of NF-κB and AP1 pathways, and for cytokineproduction such as IL-2, IFN-γ and TNF (Sharpe et al, Nat Immunol 2007,8, 239-245; Carter et al, Eur J Immunol 2002, 32(3):634-43; Freeman etal, J Exp Med 2000, 192(7):1027-34).

Several lines of evidence from preclinical animal studies indicate thatPD-1 and its ligands negatively regulate immune responses.PD-1-deficient mice have been shown to develop lupus-likeglomerulonephritis and dilated cardiomyopathy (Nishimura et al, Immunity1999, 11:141-151; Nishimura et al, Science 2001, 291:319-322). Using anLCMV model of chronic infection, it has been shown that PD-1/PD-L1interaction inhibits activation, expansion and acquisition of effectorfunctions of virus-specific CD8 T cells (Barber et al, Nature 2006, 439,682-7). Together, these data support the development of a therapeuticapproach to block the PD-1-mediated inhibitory signaling cascade inorder to augment or “rescue” T cell response. Accordingly, there is aneed for new compounds that block PD-1/PD-L1 protein/proteininteraction.

In some embodiments, a wet granulation process is used to produce thecomposition. In some embodiments, a dry granulation process is used toproduce the composition.

The compositions can be formulated in a unit dosage form, each dosagecontaining from about 5 to about 1,000 mg (1 g), more usually about 100mg to about 500 mg, of the active ingredient. In some embodiments, eachdosage contains about 10 mg of the active ingredient. In someembodiments, each dosage contains about 50 mg of the active ingredient.In some embodiments, each dosage contains about 25 mg of the activeingredient. The term “unit dosage forms” refers to physically discreteunits suitable as unitary dosages for human subjects and other mammals,each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active materialcalculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect, in associationwith a suitable pharmaceutical excipient.

The components used to formulate the pharmaceutical compositions are ofhigh purity and are substantially free of potentially harmfulcontaminants (e.g., at least National Food grade, generally at leastanalytical grade, and more typically at least pharmaceutical grade).Particularly for human consumption, the composition is preferablymanufactured or formulated under Good Manufacturing Practice standardsas defined in the applicable regulations of the U.S. Food and DrugAdministration. For example, suitable formulations may be sterile and/orsubstantially isotonic and/or in full compliance with all GoodManufacturing Practice regulations of the U.S. Food and DrugAdministration.

The active compound may be effective over a wide dosage range and isgenerally administered in a therapeutically effective amount. It will beunderstood, however, that the amount of the compound actuallyadministered will usually be determined by a physician, according to therelevant circumstances, including the condition to be treated, thechosen route of administration, the actual compound administered, theage, weight, and response of the individual patient, the severity of thepatient's symptoms and the like.

The therapeutic dosage of a compound of the present invention can varyaccording to, e.g., the particular use for which the treatment is made,the manner of administration of the compound, the health and conditionof the patient, and the judgment of the prescribing physician. Theproportion or concentration of a compound of the invention in apharmaceutical composition can vary depending upon a number of factorsincluding dosage, chemical characteristics (e.g., hydrophobicity), andthe route of administration. For example, the compounds of the inventioncan be provided in an aqueous physiological buffer solution containingabout 0.1 to about 10% w/v of the compound for parenteraladministration. Some typical dose ranges are from about 1 μg/kg to about1 g/kg of body weight per day. In some embodiments, the dose range isfrom about 0.01 mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg of body weight per day. Thedosage is likely to depend on such variables as the type and extent ofprogression of the disease or disorder, the overall health status of theparticular patient, the relative biological efficacy of the compoundselected, formulation of the excipient, and its route of administration.Effective doses can be extrapolated from dose-response curves derivedfrom in vitro or animal model test systems.

For preparing solid compositions such as tablets, the principal activeingredient is mixed with a pharmaceutical excipient to form a solidpreformulation composition containing a homogeneous mixture of acompound of the present invention. When referring to thesepreformulation compositions as homogeneous, the active ingredient istypically dispersed evenly throughout the composition so that thecomposition can be readily subdivided into equally effective unit dosageforms such as tablets, pills and capsules. This solid preformulation isthen subdivided into unit dosage forms of the type described abovecontaining from, e.g., about 0.1 to about 1000 mg of the activeingredient of the present invention.

The tablets or pills of the present invention can be coated or otherwisecompounded to provide a dosage form affording the advantage of prolongedaction. For example, the tablet or pill can comprise an inner dosage andan outer dosage component, the latter being in the form of an envelopeover the former. The two components can be separated by an enteric layerwhich serves to resist disintegration in the stomach and permit theinner component to pass intact into the duodenum or to be delayed inrelease. A variety of materials can be used for such enteric layers orcoatings, such materials including a number of polymeric acids andmixtures of polymeric acids with such materials as shellac, cetylalcohol and cellulose acetate.

The liquid forms in which the compounds and compositions of the presentinvention can be incorporated for administration orally or by injectioninclude aqueous solutions, suitably flavored syrups, aqueous or oilsuspensions, and flavored emulsions with edible oils such as cottonseedoil, sesame oil, coconut oil, or peanut oil, as well as elixirs andsimilar pharmaceutical vehicles.

Compositions for inhalation or insufflation include solutions andsuspensions in pharmaceutically acceptable, aqueous or organic solvents,or mixtures thereof, and powders. The liquid or solid compositions maycontain suitable pharmaceutically acceptable excipients as describedsupra. In some embodiments, the compositions are administered by theoral or nasal respiratory route for local or systemic effect.Compositions can be nebulized by use of inert gases. Nebulized solutionsmay be breathed directly from the nebulizing device or the nebulizingdevice can be attached to a face mask, tert, or intermittent positivepressure breathing machine. Solution, suspension, or powder compositionscan be administered orally or nasally from devices which deliver theformulation in an appropriate manner.

Topical formulations can contain one or more conventional carriers. Insome embodiments, ointments can contain water and one or morehydrophobic carriers selected from, e.g., liquid paraffin,polyoxyethylene alkyl ether, propylene glycol, white Vaseline, and thelike. Carrier compositions of creams can be based on water incombination with glycerol and one or more other components, e.g.,glycerinemonostearate, PEG-glycerinemonostearate and cetylstearylalcohol. Gels can be formulated using isopropyl alcohol and water,suitably in combination with other components such as, e.g., glycerol,hydroxyethyl cellulose, and the like. In some embodiments, topicalformulations contain at least about 0.1, at least about 0.25, at leastabout 0.5, at least about 1, at least about 2 or at least about 5 wt %of the compound of the invention. The topical formulations can besuitably packaged in tubes of, e.g., 100 g which are optionallyassociated with instructions for the treatment of the select indication,e.g., psoriasis or other skin condition.

The amount of compound or composition administered to a patient willvary depending upon what is being administered, the purpose of theadministration, such as prophylaxis or therapy, the state of thepatient, the manner of administration and the like. In therapeuticapplications, compositions can be administered to a patient alreadysuffering from a disease in an amount sufficient to cure or at leastpartially arrest the symptoms of the disease and its complications.Effective doses will depend on the disease condition being treated aswell as by the judgment of the attending clinician depending uponfactors such as the severity of the disease, the age, weight and generalcondition of the patient and the like.

The compositions administered to a patient can be in the form ofpharmaceutical compositions described above. These compositions can besterilized by conventional sterilization techniques, or may be sterilefiltered. Aqueous solutions can be packaged for use as is, orlyophilized, the lyophilized preparation being combined with a sterileaqueous carrier prior to administration. The pH of the compoundpreparations typically will be between 3 and 11, more preferably from 5to 9 and most preferably from 7 to 8. It will be understood that use ofcertain of the foregoing excipients, carriers or stabilizers will resultin the formation of pharmaceutical salts.

The therapeutic dosage of a compound of the present invention can varyaccording to, e.g., the particular use for which the treatment is made,the manner of administration of the compound, the health and conditionof the patient, and the judgment of the prescribing physician. Theproportion or concentration of a compound of the invention in apharmaceutical composition can vary depending upon a number of factorsincluding dosage, chemical characteristics (e.g., hydrophobicity), andthe route of administration. For example, the compounds of the inventioncan be provided in an aqueous physiological buffer solution containingabout 0.1 to about 10% w/v of the compound for parenteraladministration. Some typical dose ranges are from about 1 μg/kg to about1 g/kg of body weight per day. In some embodiments, the dose range isfrom about 0.01 mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg of body weight per day. Thedosage is likely to depend on such variables as the type and extent ofprogression of the disease or disorder, the overall health status of theparticular patient, the relative biological efficacy of the compoundselected, formulation of the excipient, and its route of administration.Effective doses can be extrapolated from dose-response curves derivedfrom in vitro or animal model test systems.

V. Labeled Compounds and Assay Methods

The compounds of the present disclosure can further be useful ininvestigations of biological processes in normal and abnormal tissues.Thus, another aspect of the present invention relates to labeledcompounds of the invention (radio-labeled, fluorescent-labeled, etc.)that would be useful not only in imaging techniques but also in assays,both in vitro and in vivo, for localizing and quantitating PD-1 or PD-L1protein in tissue samples, including human, and for identifying PD-L1ligands by inhibition binding of a labeled compound. Accordingly, thepresent invention includes PD-1/PD-L1 binding assays that contain suchlabeled compounds.

The present invention further includes isotopically-substitutedcompounds of the disclosure. An “isotopically-substituted” compound is acompound of the invention where one or more atoms are replaced orsubstituted by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number differentfrom the atomic mass or mass number typically found in nature (i.e.,naturally occurring). It is to be understood that a “radio-labeled” is acompound that has incorporated at least one isotope that is radioactive(e.g., radionuclide). Suitable radionuclides that may be incorporated incompounds of the present invention include but are not limited to ³H(also written as T for tritium), ¹¹C, ¹³C, ¹⁴C, ¹³N, ¹⁵N, ¹⁵O, ¹⁷O, ¹⁸O,¹⁸F, ³⁵S, ³⁶Cl, ⁸²Br, ⁷⁵Br, ⁷⁶Br, ⁷⁷Br, ¹²³I, ¹²⁴I, ¹²⁵I and ¹³¹I. Theradionuclide that is incorporated in the instant radio-labeled compoundswill depend on the specific application of that radio-labeled compound.For example, for in vitro PD-L1 protein labeling and competition assays,compounds that incorporate ³H ¹⁴C, ⁸²Br, ¹²⁵I, ¹³¹I, ³⁵S or willgenerally be most useful. For radio-imaging applications ¹¹C, ¹⁸F, ¹²⁵I,¹²³I, ¹²⁴I, ¹³¹I, ⁷⁵Br, ⁷⁶Br or ⁷⁷Br will generally be most useful. Insome embodiments the radionuclide is selected from the group consistingof ³H, ¹⁴C, ¹²⁵I, ³⁵S and ⁸²Br. Synthetic methods for incorporatingradio-isotopes into organic compounds are known in the art.

Specifically, a labeled compound of the invention can be used in ascreening assay to identify and/or evaluate compounds. For example, anewly synthesized or identified compound (i.e., test compound) which islabeled can be evaluated for its ability to bind a PD-L1 protein bymonitoring its concentration variation when contacting with the PD-L1protein, through tracking of the labeling. For example, a test compound(labeled) can be evaluated for its ability to reduce binding of anothercompound which is known to bind to a PD-L1 protein (i.e., standardcompound). Accordingly, the ability of a test compound to compete withthe standard compound for binding to the PD-L1 protein directlycorrelates to its binding affinity. Conversely, in some other screeningassays, the standard compound is labeled and test compounds areunlabeled. Accordingly, the concentration of the labeled standardcompound is monitored in order to evaluate the competition between thestandard compound and the test compound, and the relative bindingaffinity of the test compound is thus ascertained.

VI. Kits

The present disclosure also includes pharmaceutical kits useful, e.g.,in the treatment or prevention of diseases or disorders associated withthe activity of PD-L1 including its interaction with other proteins suchas PD-1 and B7-1 (CD80), such as cancer or infections, which include oneor more containers containing a pharmaceutical composition comprising atherapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I), or any ofthe embodiments thereof. Such kits can further include one or more ofvarious conventional pharmaceutical kit components, such as, e.g.,containers with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers,additional containers, etc., as will be readily apparent to thoseskilled in the art. Instructions, either as inserts or as labels,indicating quantities of the components to be administered, guidelinesfor administration, and/or guidelines for mixing the components, canalso be included in the kit.

The invention will be described in greater detail by way of specificexamples. The following examples are offered for illustrative purposes,and are not intended to limit the invention in any manner. Those ofskill in the art will readily recognize a variety of non-criticalparameters which can be changed or modified to yield essentially thesame results. The compounds of the Examples have been found to inhibitthe activity of PD-1/PD-L1 protein/protein interaction according to atleast one assay described herein.
